At the time of power swing the measured impedance lies inside the relay operating region. There is undesired tripping of Distance relay during power swing without having any fault. So relay must be blocked & must trip after a fault occur during power swing. This paper presents new technique to detect fault during power swing. In the proposed technique process starts by simulating the double tra...

This paper presents a new method, which can provide protection to both uncompensated and fixed series compensated overhead transmission line with different level of compensations. It doesn’t require any functional change while working with series compensated transmission line or uncompensated line. The proposed algorithm uses Discrete Wavelet Transform with sub-band energy extraction from lower...

This paper presents a comparative study of the performance of distance relays for transmission line high voltage (HV) 400 kV in Eastern Algerian transmission networks at Group Sonelgaz compensated by two different series Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) i.e. GTO Controlled Series Capacitor (GCSC) and Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) connected at midpoint of an electrical tran...

Wind farms are generally located far away from load centers and, to increase the power flow, series capacitors are normally installed to compensate the transmission line reactance. The interaction of the series capacitor with the wind system can cause undamped sub-harmonic (below 60 Hz or 50Hz system frequency) current and voltage oscillations, which can cause serious damage to wind turbine con...

Maximum power transfer capability in the transmission line is the utmost important consideration in power systems. VAR Compensator (SVC) and Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) are important devices in FACTS family, and is widely recognized as an effective and economical means to solve the power system stability problem. SVC and STATCOM are used as shunt in transmission system. In the pres...

This paper deal with an analytical and simulation of the application of distance relay for the protection of line transmission high voltage 220 kV employing series capacitors compensating devices. A detailed modelling of series compensated (SC) is proposed and integrated in transmission system. The studies also include different challenges which the protection engineer may face such as current ...
